05-RTMM Addons
C:\Users\kaha\Documents\Prepar3D v5 Add-ons\RTMM Add-on (P3Dv5) - Work\05-RTMM Addons\Scenery\CBMC_ADEX_mib.bgl

Did you try to open the leg starting at Moh Creek and other in LNM?

General Discussion / Heading bug and OBS externally controlled
« Last post by kaha on Today at 06:22:39 AM »Hi, just want to show with how few gadgets this is possible. This is a Teensy 3.2 Arduino compatible microcontroller. It can handle up to 7 rotary encoders (including the button presses) or 4 dual encoders. Together with a tiny Lua Script it can control various values in P3D.
The price of the Teensy is $20, a digital encoder is $1.

Now I just need some 3D-printed case to make a permanent installation. I'M not into 3D printing, but my son is. I will ask him to print something for me and then show it here.

Is there at all a strip?

« Last post by tomse on Today at 03:47:43 AM »Finished MFC 0051, nice trip. Landing at Rays Cabin was tricky. Little NavMap had a problem with Moh creek. There was no ICAO record for Moh Creek in it. I did a little ADE file, but I could not even load the departing leg! I loaded the whole route and deleted the other waypoints and changed the starting waypoint to the new ICAO.
Did no other had this problem?

Help and Troubleshooting / Re: Layering Issue?
« Last post by nbrich1 on March 07, 2021, 11:22:36 PM »Lets summarize this and the solution.
The default Prepar3D v4 Add-ons location is at location >> drive:\Documents\Prepar3D v4 Add-ons\
So if an add-on is in that folder it will be read by the sim.. (If there is a valid add-on.xml file in an add-on folder..
Now the curve. If you don't have your add-ons in the default drive:\documents\Prepar3D v4 Add-ons\
or drive:\documents\Prepar3D v5 Add-ons\ folders then you MUST direct the sim to that alternate location(s) or the sim won't the add-on.
IF in Peter's case, all, or some of your add-ons are not in the default add-on location (as was the case in Peter's set up (His on S: drive in folder \P3Dv4 Add-ons
Then you must force or direct the sim to see the designated custom add-on folder location.
To do this you need to add a discovery path entry in the add-ons.CFG file located in
hidden folder C:\ProgramData\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4.
In Peters case the entry would read:
IE: add the following:
[DiscoveryPath.x] <<< (where x = the next DiscoveryPath. entry number]
PATH=S:\P3Dv4 Addons\
TITLE=P3Dv4 Addons
ACTIVE=true
REQUIRED=false
Save the file. Then start the sim and it should now read the S:\P3Dv4 Addons\ as specified in the add-on.cfg and reads the valid add-on.xml files for any add-ons inside that drive\folder location as well as the default location.
So anyone who want their add-ons on another drive or folder that is not the sim's default add-on location add a discovery path entry to direct the sim to scan that location for add-ons.
Problem solved.

Help and Troubleshooting / Re: Layering Issue?
« Last post by TooMuchFS on March 07, 2021, 11:04:24 PM »Thanks to Norm, Misty's Place now appears before my eyes!
I'll do some more testing, but I think this has nailed it.
The the entire issue seems to have been it was looking in the wrong place for my setup (my P3D Addons is at S:P3D Addons, not the default C:/Documents location).
So a tweak to the xml file redirected all the bits and they now talk happily to each other.
I hope this helps some others!
Many thanks yet again Norm.
Cheers
Peter
